Python, Linux, Desktop Environment

So, I've written my first GUI app in python. I've turned it into a
binary .exe and .app that runs on Windows and Mac respectively, but on
my Linux box, where I wrote the thing, I still have to drop to the
command line and ./myscript.py. What can I do to make it a "click and
run" sort of application in KDE or Gnome on Linux?

Just installed J2RE 1.4.2 on a Linux server. I am very knew to the POSIX world. I couldn't dig-up much in the docs or via google about the following: 1 - Is there a standard way to make sure users (all, or some) can "reach" java? eg one could presumably create a java.sh or aliases ... Where is the standard Linux directory to put such a script (and why)?

I have been developing a Python program with two intercommunicating (using sockets) parts, one of which runs on a desktop and the other on a PDA. For ease of development, I developed them both on a desktop. Now that I have them working on the desktop, I need to move the part destined for a PDA to a PDA. I had originally planned to use a Sharp Zaurus because it runs Linux (the OS of my desktop system) and I had found a Python port that...

Apologies if this isn't news here - I've been too busy this last week or so for even skimming the traffic here, in part because I've been messing around with Ubuntu's preview release on a spare machine... and, of course, spending time on their very busy mailing list. :-) I didn't find any mention of Ubuntu in a quick scan of recent messages, so... Ubuntu is a Linux distribution that starts with the breadth of Debian and adds regular...

I've been installing Python and its supporting packages on a dedicated server with Fedora Core 6 for about a day now. This is a standard dedicated rackmount server in a colocation facility, controlled via Plesk control panel, and turned over to me with Fedora Core 6 in an empty state. This is the standard way you get a server in a colo today. Bringing Python up in this completely clean environment is a huge hassle, and it doesn't...

Hello all, I am attempting to execute an automated test (written in Python) via cron. I have to check the HOSTNAME variable as part of the test, oddly under cron the HOSTNAME environment variable is not in the os.environ dictionary. I know that cron runs in a subshell that does not have all of the normally set environment variables. HOSTNAME is not one of those variables, it is set even in cron's subshell. Why doesn't python get...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...

But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
